== History of Arthurlie ==
The lands of Arthurlie were held in medieval times by the Stewart family, a branch of the noble Stewarts of Darnley. Later the lands became the property of Allan Pollock, Esq. and remained in his family for several generations before being inherited by Gavin Ralston of Woodside in Beith.〔Pride, David (1910). ''A History of the Parish of Neilston''. Pub. Alexander Gardner, Paisley. Facing p 137.〕 The area has long been associated with the legends of King Arthur.〔Pride, David (1910). ''A History of the Parish of Neilston''. Pub. Alexander Gardner, Paisley. p 138.〕 The name means 'Arthur's meadow.'〔Johnston, James B. (1903), ''Place-Names of Scotland.'' Pub. David Douglas, Edinburgh. P. 19.〕 Arthurlie was a barony of considerable extent, however it eventually came to be purchased by Henry Dunlop Esq. in 1818 from Gavin Ralston, a distant relative.
The Dunlop family ran Gateside Cotton Mill under the name of James Dunlop & Son. The old house was torn down and Arthurlie House was erected with the old gardens extended and remodelled in 1818.〔 The estate remained in the hands of the Dunlop family until about 1938. It was a Mr. Charles Taylor who discovered the ancient Arthurlee Cross being used as a gatepost on the estate and persuaded Henry Dunlop to rescue it.〔(Scran - Squire Dunlop. Accessed : 2009/11/19 )〕
